opening paragraph makes light of autism in Mark Zuckerberg story
This was the lede in an article about Facebook destroying Google's attempt to start a rival social network
Quote:
Mark Zuckerberg is a genius
Not in the Asperger’s, autistic way depicted in the very fictional movie The Social Network, the cognitive genius of exceptional ability. That’s a modern definition that reduces the original meaning.

Offended?
My view is that the reporter put his opinion in about a topic that had no business bieng in that article. He is guilty of bieng careless not offensive.
